A New Curse?

As James Taranto reports in the Wall Street Journal, since the 2000 season, the Yankees have:

2001: Lost World Series to Arizona Diamondbacks in seven games.
2002: Lost Division Series to Anaheim Angels in four.
2003: Lost World Series to Florida Marlins in six.
2004: Lost Championship Series to Red Sox in seven.

Perhaps there is a new curse afflicting the Yankees. 2000 is the year that the Clintons moved to New York. It is also the year that Hillary Clinton, an Illinois native, said she was a lifelong Yankees fan (while wearing a Cubs ballcap) and was elected to the US Senate from New York. The baseball gods are not happy.

On the other hand, Power Line has a few choice words for Sox fans who claim accursedness.
